- There are many places in my neighborhood which are infested with wild animals. The following are to be found there- The rabbit, The Hare, the rat the mouse, the bat, the fox, the hedge-hog, the badger, the deer, the squirrel, the otter and the weasel.
The Rabbit lives in a burrow. He feeds on turnips and clover and does great damage to the farmer. The hare lives in a sop out in an open field. He eats mangolds and does great damage to the farmers crops
The rat is a small animal. He lives in a hole in the wall. He eats potatoes, and mangolds and very often annoys the farmer.
The rat mouse is a very small animal. He lives indoors. He eats crumbs, flour, oats and bread. The bat is the same size as the rabbit. He kills rats and mice. He is a good animal
